Bolting bride Jennifer Wilbanks likely lied about how much money she spent on her cross-country sprint from the altar, Georgia authorities said yesterday.

Investigators are looking at expenses of the three- day trip as part of their ongoing probe into Wilbanks, who could face criminal charges for calling in the bogus kidnapping after her mad dash from Georgia to Las Vegas to New Mexico.

Wilbanks has told police she left the Georgia home she shared with fiancé John Mason with $140 – but it’s likely she would have needed to spend more during the spree that began April 26.

“We’re trying to account for the money,” Gwinnett County prosecutor Danny Porter said yesterday.

Authorities have said Wilbanks coolly planned her vanishing act. She bought a bus ticket, cut her hair, lied to her boss to get time off, and subsequently called in the fake kidnapping report.

Wilbanks’ lawyer, Lydia Jackson Sartain, said her client has “a lot of serious issues,” and is “not well,” but is not a criminal. At Wilbanks’ request, Sartain called Duluth Mayor Shirley Lasseter to apologize for Jennifer. Lasseter – who has said the town may sue Wilbanks to recoup nearly $60,000 spent on the search – called the conversation “a step in the right direction.”
